#RedWings take C Owen Mehlenbacher (6-2, 190) from Muskegon (USHL) at 201 in seventh round. Had 17 goals, 25 assists in 56 games, 4-4–8 in playoffs. Bound for Wisconsin.— Ansar Khan (@AnsarKhanMLive) July 8, 2022

Owen Mehlenbacher is a player I really like in this range. Skating improved a lot over the USHL season. Plays a power game. Great at net front and tough to separate from the puck. Could be a great support player at the next level. #NHLDraft— Brock Otten (@BrockOtten) July 8, 2022

We didn’t like that water bottle either…
